I am hopping mine hopped on that UP train also. I saw your VIN of *145382. Mine was *145339. Yours heading to TX, mine to NE.

Hang in there guys...according to the CSX tracking...as of 4:40 central time, the train is in Toronto (what 5 miles from Oshawa?) so I don't think it's even really left yet. They may still be loading.

I borrowed the rail tracking info from Panther2469 in the 11/7/11 thread...

But they all start out on CSX so once they have it in there system they will follow it all the way.

How do I track my car on a railcar?

First and most important. Never talk to live personnel at the railroad! Only use automated phone system. If it attempts to transfer you to a live person please hang up. The railcar information we are provided by GM is given as a courtesy and if we call live personnel we will lose our data and ability to track
CSX
1. Call the CSX 1-800-235-2352 1-800-235-2352
2. When prompted for location or weight, press "1" on your phone for location.
3. When prompted for the car initials, say ETTX (whatever initials you have) then wait for the next prompt. OR key in 32-81-81-92 (for ETTX)(letter and position on your phone)
4. When prompted for the car number, say 907048 or key in whatever your car number is
5. When prompted for next car say DONE.
6. That's it; enjoy your updated status report.

These automated systems can be frustrating. Keep in mind they are intended for use by folks that use them daily all day long. Like I said if you are being transferred to a live person please hang up and try again.

Man, you guys are so lucky - still sitting at 3400, it doesn't seem to change no matter how many times a day I check! Regardless, it will ship at some point, and I'll get to drive it every day in pretty decent weather. I'm sitting in Calgary, Canada right now looking out the restaurant window, thinking how I'd hate to be driving it in the dirty dirty streets here at 0 degrees F and dropping.

If it got built today or tonight, you'll have an update in the morning. I've received most of my updates around 8:00 am central time the day after whatever event code happened.

Check again the morning around then if you can... we're all here with you brother.
